BRIEF Markets play an important role in urban fabric being the most socially diverse public places in a community, bringing people of different ages, genders, races ethnicities, and socioeconomic status together around the experiences of food, shopping and conversation. They provide a space to purchase fresh, affordable products that reflects diversity of the community .The brief revolves around the impacts of architectural design on the social, cultural, and economic factors influencing the revitalization of the urban marketplace. The new market must have a captivating design, simple and elegant, different from the huge concrete buildings of the city, but at the same time it needs to be integrated with surroundings. Thus, the market would be the image of a city in evolution, a city that is changing for its citizens’ wellbeing.

JHUNTAMARA
The area of this particular study, Jhuntamara, holds as an example to such communities, which despite being deprived of the are DOCUMENTATION WORK wholly self-sufficient and are thriving on their own, irrespective of their place in the traditional concept of society. Water a shared resource among the people binds the community towards its use from common sources. Such communities, that are away from the river, and are at a disadvantage overcame this problem by taking initiative and building artificial ponds around their settlements.
Heritage as defined by UNESCO is “a legacy that we received from the past that we experience in the present and that we will pass on to future generation” For generations people are striving to preserve their heritage while adapting to changes in society which leads to the question, “Is heritage always supposed to be monumental?”. A place, before it is considered monumental holds engaging and functional attributes, by repetition, by the people, which is later defined as a “heritage site.” Such sites are predominantly made by a certain community, to practice their rituals or daily practices, which often celebrates their cultural and traditional upbringing which has been passed down to them by their ancestors. On the banks of the Mahanadi river there is an arrangement of settlements of various tribes strongly arranged with “hierarchy of the caste system”, which dictates the area for their dwellings. Moving away from the main river, there is a noticeable shift in the, “social status” of these occupants. The ones who are considered to belong from a higher sect of society mainly reside near the river banks, while those who don’t, occupy the lands further away from it.
